Former PM of Georgia; For Georgia chairman
Giorgi Gakharia
Representative of State Special Protection Service - hTe organizers of the rally were asking us to give them the keys to the palace - I was in the yard and I heard Murtaz Zodelava's voice: "Let's not back down, the palace is ours," he was with Irakli Nadiradze
Expert witness on the October 4 case - Sections of the fence near the Presidential Palace were deformed, broken at the welding point, one fence was half broken, the fence was not rusted - the damage is 9,300 GEL
Murtaz Zodelava - If there is a person who is not involved in anything in nature, it is Paata Manjgaladze - the case of Irakli and Lasha is absolutely the same, but Paata's case is even more special
Paata Manjgaladze on October 4 events - I won't hide it, many people wanted to take photos that day - it was a performance and it cannot be interpreted as though I was an organizer
Irakli Chkhvirkia: In 2008 I ran away from home to take part in the war; in 2022 I went to Ukraine to fight - if I called on someone here, near the Atoneli Palace, and then ran away, damn the mother of such an Irakli Chkhvirkia!
Paata Burchuladze: You will not obtain false testimony either from Bacho Akhalaia, whom you are threatening with the arrest of his wife, or from Eva Shashiashvili - you will not succeed with others either, so my advice is: don’t bother
There was commotion in Tbilisi City Court, where cases of persons accused in connection with October 4 events are being considered
Irakli Nadiradze - It turns out that such a big coup was planned and was led by a world opera singer and a former prosecutor general - their propaganda is failing, it is difficult even for their supporters to believe that the regime would fall without money and weapons
Murtaz Zodelava - October 4 has acquired many myths, and the government myth has sacrificed another person - Bacho Akhalaia, who was arrested a few days ago
Paata Manjgaladze on October 4 - The prosecutor's office should not only bring comments that are against me, but also those where I say that I am not the organizer of the rally - there was no meeting where anything was planned - there is no talk of any overthrow
Case of Paata Burchuladze, Murtaz Zodelava, Irakli Nadiradze, Paata Manjgaladze, Lasha Beridze, Irakli Shaishmelashvili and 5 other individuals being heard by Tbilisi City Court
Levan Ioseliani: It would have been easy to become an opposition party or NGO “star boy,” but that is not the Public Defender’s role - I am ready to testify regarding the October 4 case
Prosecutor on Akhalaia case: There is information confirming telephone communications; therefore, the charges are supported by evidence; we cannot go into the content because the case is being heard behind closed doors
Kakha Kaladze on Bacho Akhalaia's case - We made calls not to take any illegal steps, but nevertheless they acted as they did - whoever committed a crime in connection with the coup attempt will be held accountable
Irakli Kobakhidze on Bacho Akhalaia’s arrest - There was an attempt to overthrow a government on October 4, it failed, but the crime remains, therefore all the perpetrators must be identified - the investigation must be completed and that is what the State Security Service is doing
Ani Nadareishvili - We had been in emigration, in Poland, to earn a living, Bacho was planning to return there a few weeks ago, but they did not let us cross the border - what Georgia heard at the briefing yesterday was the complete ravings
State Security Service - A decision has been made to release Ana Nadareishvili from detention, the investigation will consider in the future whether she participated in any way in the crime committed together with her husband
State Security Service – The October 4 criminal events were led through an internet application and the main organizer in Georgia was Bacho Akhalaia
Five years of Sadyr Japarov’s Presidency: The main test is still ahead
Ambassador of Korea Hyon Du KIM - Korea’s strength lies in high-tech manufacturing while Georgia’s strength is in logistics and service areas - Georgia should not be just considered as a single market but as a market that can encompass the region and beyond
Oleksii Reznikov - Russia, in reality, is a paper tiger
